2003 Pontiac Grand Prix: The Last Year of the Seventh Generation

This record's own dek states that 2003 was the last year of the seventh-generation Grand Prix, with no production figure found. This record's own overview states that the compiled engine tables list a supercharged 3.8-liter V6 at 240 hp and 280 lb-ft and a 3.1-liter V6 at 175 hp and 195 lb-ft for 2003, both SAE net as compiled with no rpm given; it also states directly that no 2003 production figure was found in an accessible published source, since the compiled Standard Catalog table used for earlier years ends with 2002, though the compiled engine tables still list the supercharged 3.8 at 240 hp.¹

This record's own keyFacts section states that for 2003 the Grand Prix was sold only as a sedan, with the spec sheet pricing SE (option groups 1SA and 1SB), GT (1SA, 1SB and 1SC) and GTP (1SA) sedans, and offering a Limited Edition Appearance Package with a Limited Edition rear spoiler, blue-lens fog lamps, four exhaust tips, black-on-white gauges, and gray leather-and-fabric seats with blue embroidered stitching.²

This record's own production section carries a single row, 125,441 Grand Prix US deliveries for calendar year 2003, explicitly noted as covering all Grand Prix trims and model years rather than model-year production, and as spanning both the last seventh-generation 2003 cars and the first 2004 models. This record's own production notes state plainly that no model-year production figure was found for 2003 in an accessible published source. This record's own unpublishedLeads section carries a forum estimate of roughly 8,000 2003 Limited Edition Grand Prix built, held back as approximate and unsourced, and a Wikipedia claim that Pontiac dropped the coupe for 2003 and that seventh-generation production ceased in February 2003, held back as tertiary text without a traced primary citation, with this record's own reason field noting the 2003 spec sheet does list sedans only.³

This record's own prices section carries six MSRPs from the 2003 spec sheet, effective July 11, 2002: $22,140 for the SE sedan option group 1SA and $22,695 for 1SB, $23,990 for the GT sedan 1SA, $24,435 for 1SB and $25,560 for 1SC, and $26,800 for the GTP sedan 1SA, with tax, title, license and optional equipment stated as extra in every case.²

This record's own engines section carries three entries: the supercharged 3.8-liter standard on the GTP, matching the overview; the 3.1-liter standard on the SE, also matching the overview; and a third entry for the naturally aspirated 3.8-liter standard on the GT, sourced only to the 2003 spec sheet since this record's own compiled engine table does not carry that engine for the year. This record's own transmissions section lists a single entry, the four-speed automatic, the only transmission for the year, with three EPA vehicle records covering the three engines.^2,1,4

This record's own options section itemizes the SE and GT sedan option groups, the Limited Edition Appearance Package by its own full content, matching the keyFacts description with monotone fascias and Limited Edition badging added, a WideTrack Sport Package with a power sunroof, 16-inch high-polished five-spoke wheels, four-wheel antilock disc brakes, leather seating and a heated driver seat, a one-year OnStar Safe & Sound Package standard on the GTP and available on other trims, an EyeCue Head-Up Display, and a power sunroof that deletes the overhead console.²

This record's own paint table lists nine colors, and this record's own interiors section carries two entries: optional leather-trimmed seats, and the Limited Edition Appearance Package's own tone-on-tone gray leather-trimmed seats with gray fabric inserts and blue Limited Edition embroidered stitching. This record's own specifications section carries two entries, an approximate 18.0-gallon fuel tank and 16.0 cubic feet of cargo volume across all models. This record's own performance, identification and conflicts sections are all empty for the year.²
